Simply Inspired Blog Hop: Free to Be Me

Time for another blog hop. I absolutely love participating in these because the ideas are so beautiful and it keeps me on my creative toes. If you've just arrived here from the sweet and lovely Michelle Snyder's blog, then you are on the right track. At any time if you get lost along the way, you can go to this link to see all the blog hoppers.

And now on to it. Today is National Scrapbooking Day! The whole month of May is National Scrapbooking Month and Close to My Heart's Free to Be Me special is available all month long but today is the perfect day to introduce it to you.

  

I adore these colors. And the textures! And the vellum! Ahhh, there is nothing not to like about this particular paper packet.

 

Here is a close up. Baby Rilo has got to be the cutest little bunny ever but look closely at the paper here. Can you see the texture in the lovely pink sorbet paper? And on the teal? And that beautiful gold polka dot is velllum layered over the pink sorbet paper.

Here is another close up. My cute niece and nephew-in-law are darling parents but look at the paper again for a moment. See the texture in the green? And that feather pattern in the background is also vellum. I adore these people and I adore this paper!

Thank you to Maddie and Jared for letting me feature them and their precious new daughter on this page. I hope I've inspired all of you. And now hop on over to the talented Beckie Lehman's blog for more inspiration.
